I received this email this morning from some Mr. Nelson Cole.

REQUEST.

Your first reaction to this mail will be total rejection, scare and may
be disbelief, owning largely to the atrocities people commit these
days. But this mail comes from a devastated, sorrowful and emotional laden
soul that needs compassion from a kind and good spirited person to
wipe away my tears and appropriate my dream and humanitarian gesture.As
you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry forme, because, I believe
everyone dies someday.

My name is nelson cole a merchant in Dubai,in theU.A.E.I worked with
Zambian Ministry of Mining and Resources for eight years as a
contractor,I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer .It has defiled all forms
of medical treatment,I am very worried as the doctors have informed me
that its terminal. I don't know how much time I have left on earth,
hence this mail to you.I have not particularly lived my life well, as I
never really cared for anyone but my business.

Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to
people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing I
cared for. But now I regret all this as.I now know that there is more to
life than just wanting to have or make allthe money in the world. I
believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live
my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God has
called me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my
immediate and extended family members as well as a few close friends. I
want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul hence, I decided to
give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last
good deeds I do on earth.

So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the
U.A.E,Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so
badly, I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked members of my family
to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there
to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan,they refused and kept
the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they
seem not to be content with what I have left for them.The last of my
money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of $7,5000,000,00 that
I have with a finance/Security Company abroad.

I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatch it to
charity organizations. I have set aside 20% for you and for your time. God
be with you.

Nelson Cole.
